Well not exactly..... have been meaning to have a crack at this style of bow for a year now. Finally got around to getting the form made at easter. Then chucked a few bits and pieces together for a trial run. And this is the result, first coat on and not even rubbed back yet. Still needs a few sanding touch ups but so far so good.

Bow is 60"NTN, 51#@28, has a Acacia back veneer and a Blackbutt belly veneer with a 16" Jarrah riser.

Managed to put a feather into my finger so have added some overlays to create finger grooves to avoid this.
Shooting 400 spine carbons out of it at 220fps with the string silencers. Very flat shooting and quiet. Will give it a good workout at the club two day shoot this weekend.

Nice work and a nice looking bow Muz.
I'm interested in seeing as to how it looks at full draw if that is at all possible.
From standing pictures it looks as if the mid limbs would be fully working with a little bit of movement from the tips. ?
Cheers. Bill.

Hi Greybeard, works out at 7gn/lb. I have the advantage of a 30" draw also. I'm happy with the design and limb performance. Normally shoot 10gn/# or higher but just giving her a hard time to see how she holds up. Will make another around the 40# mark once I try out a couple of other new forms.
